How to Dominate the Cannabis Industry

So many people are in a rush to be proven right and be accepted …

But the truth is, being underestimated and misunderstood is a massive advantage in business.

Instead of debating or convincing people why you’re “going to win”, spend time on actually building your brand and let the results speak in the end!

I talk about this more in this keynote I gave to cannabis industry leaders at Hall of Flowers … Curious to hear your $.02 in the comments 😉

    Great message Gary. Thanks for all that you do for the community.



  2. My Own Business Experience on September 22, 2019 at 4:21 am

    Such a long awaited time… just 10 years ago nobody believed that cannabis will turn that quick to be such a popular and respected plant…



  3. Transition To A Cannabis Career on September 22, 2019 at 4:22 am

    Good insight.



  4. J- me on September 22, 2019 at 4:22 am

    litterally so little meaning in what he actually says could be summarised in 2 sentences. I admire his passion though



  5. Dhante Swha'le on September 22, 2019 at 4:22 am

    I appreciate the content



  6. Jinty Mcginty on September 22, 2019 at 4:23 am

    I’ve never had any money… and came from a poor family…. but I’m half way through a Computing & IT Bachelors degree and I’m graded a distinction ….. I am 25 now, and i have not earned more than 12 pounds an hour for a 6 month job… I can almost taste the graduation job money…. and I’m so motivated to grind to a 6 figure salary and then invest money into a cannabis business to bring me to that million and up and up from there…

  11. No Comps on September 22, 2019 at 4:29 am

    The more you talk, the less you know. This guy knows jack shit, just paid to ramble.



  12. Łukasz Krueger on September 22, 2019 at 4:30 am

    Please don’t dominate, become an integral part off.



  13. Łukasz Krueger on September 22, 2019 at 4:32 am

    People have feelings, it is good, natural and it is characteristic of all of uss to have doubts, to complain, to have worst days Gary.

    No path of life will be easy just believe in your self and never give up you can become anyone you want to be forge your own destiny



  18. Daniel Hersch on September 22, 2019 at 4:40 am

    What is this guy talking about. Its like listening to a televangelist



  19. RAYMOND SYKES on September 22, 2019 at 4:42 am

    I think its cool he has an interest in the industry but he needs to stick with what he knows which is sales. He doesnt know anything about the actual cannabis industry thats been booming for 10-20 years and doesnt have the knowledge the growers who have been growing for patients for 20 years do. Just because you blew up and you have good sales and marketing advice doesnt mean you know cannabis or its industry since its not the same as anything you participate in or have your hand in now



  20. MOVIDA CBD & Superfoods on September 22, 2019 at 4:43 am

    Awesome… valuable content… a few months ago I changed my focus from being a big dog in the cannabis industry, to building and serving my community. Everything I do now is based on whether or not it benefits the people I serve in my community. It makes life easier and it’s way more fun… And, I believe the business will have staying power through the community that we build… So, this video resonates perfectly with me. Thank you.

  33. FatherSon 604 on September 22, 2019 at 4:59 am

    I always hear this guy telling people how to do this or dont do that. He talks about himself alot and how great his way is the best! But every video is the same ! I think he’s convinced people they need to listen to him and he walks away laughing with a huge speaking fee. He is good at tapping into a persons feelings and making himself sound like an expert



  34. JAE SIN DnB on September 22, 2019 at 5:01 am

    Smoke fucking DMT!!!!!!

  40. Jason A on September 22, 2019 at 5:09 am

    This talk is awesome. I feel sorry for someone that doesn’t get value out of listening to this. Thanks for sharing

  44. Modezart On The Beat on September 22, 2019 at 5:14 am

    Dang man!! I am a producer, and I find it so tough to pierce through all the music clout bullshit, and actually make a good respectable brand. But I know through time, good content, and hard work, I will. Even though this was about the cannabis industry , It definitely helped me see a few more things clearer. Thanks Gary 🙏💯



  45. elsita A on September 22, 2019 at 5:16 am

    Patience is the biggest and hardest lesson..



  46. Just in on September 22, 2019 at 5:16 am

    wtf do you know about the cannabis industry gary.. You sell words not weed…



  47. Dan Jolicoeur on September 22, 2019 at 5:16 am

    Thnx .. ♥️



  48. CBD Oil with Kate on September 22, 2019 at 5:17 am

    I have already started the content creation process. But putting out a video per day when you have a new born is tough.

    I am creating content on cannabis which will help a lot of people.

    Trying to put out 1 video per week right now but let’s see what happens in future 🙂



  49. The Greener Side Channel on September 22, 2019 at 5:18 am
